Posted by anonymous | April 26, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

A JOB WELL DONE

I was at a crossroad not knowing which way to go towards moving forward on my divorce.I had separated from my ex -wife and was living in an apartment and paying for a mortgage and all bills of a house that I was not living in.The ex-wife did not want to cooperate with me in trying to be reasonable wi...th the mortgage and bills for the house.I had spoken with several attorneys and I started out with an attorney in the office with Ms.Allen and I was later referred to Mr.Erickson.I spoke to Mr.Erickson and explained my situation to him as to what was going on. He advised me that I could start the process and move forward or I could sit back and wait and do nothing and keep paying out money and letting the ex-wife play games.I waited for awhile and then I decided to move forward on the separation and divorce process.I called Mr.Erickson later and told hom let's start the process.Mr.Erickson took me from the beginning to the ending of the separation and divorce process.I was standing to take a big lost during the process.However,the only big loss I took was the ex-wife getting half of my retirement in which I had already knew that no matter which way the process went that shevwould be entitled to that after being married for 30+ years.On the other hand,Mr.Erickson was able to get other monies for me for bills,insurances,personal items and I also got a FATCHECK when the ex-wife brought me out for the house.Mr. Erickson was very knowledgeable and professional all along the way during my process.Granted that even though I had to pay my legal fees,I will say that Mr.Erickson was able to get me over $200,000 in my pocket when everything was said and done.Based on my situation from the beginning and in the middle it didn't seem like I would come out on top. I am very pleased with the outcome and have started a new journey in life thanks to Mr.Erickson.

This attorney deserves an award

When it came to my custody and child support battle Nick Erickson was by far the best attorney I could’ve ever asked for! Very diligent and definitely someone I was able to trust to get me what I deserved in my case!

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
